modelence@0.24.1
The Node.js Framework for Real-Time MongoDB Apps
AI Security Review
scanned 2mo ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThis is a real but bounded lifecycle and agent-configuration risk, not a confirmed malware chain. The scanner's host-exfiltration signal was not confirmed by source inspection.
Static reason
One or more suspicious static signals were detected.
Trigger
Installing from a context that runs prepare, or running modelence setup.
Impact
The hook configuration can alter which hooks run in the consumer repository; setup can enable a Modelence plugin in that project.
Mechanism
Git hook-path mutation and project-local AI-agent plugin setup.
AI rationale
This is a real but bounded lifecycle and agent-configuration risk, not a confirmed malware chain. The scanner's host-exfiltration signal was not confirmed by source inspection.
Evidence
package.jsondist/bin/modelence.js.git/config.claude/settings.json
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 88.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The automatic prepare hook changes the enclosing Git repository's hooks path.
- The setup CLI creates and enables a Modelence Claude Code marketplace plugin in the current project.
Evidence against
- There are no preinstall, install, or postinstall hooks and no self-dependency.
- The networked setup and deployment actions are only invoked through named CLI commands; no credential harvesting or covert host-data upload was confirmed.
